I'm still here

It seems like I never have time to post anymore!!! I will try to be better!!! I took the day off from work today!!! YEA!!!!!!!!!!! A whole morning alone with my munchkins!! Joel went golfing this morning with his brother and a good friend of ours. I am now waiting for Joel to get out of the shower so I can get his shower stuff packed. Packed??? Where are we going??? We are leaving and heading to the lake for the weekend as soon as Joel is ready. It should be a fun, crazy time!! There will be Joel's folks, his brother and his family, his other brother and his family, and us!!! For those of you that might not know how many people that is...15!!! We are staying in a 4 bedroom 4 bathroom cabin on a beautiful golf course, just a few miles from the lake. Hopefully we will have a great time!!!

Not much else is going on...I think this weekend will be good for me. Things at work are a little chaotic right now and it is only going to get worse for the next little bit. I think I need a little bit of rest and relaxation (is that possible with 2 children under the age of 1?).

I will try to post some picture when we get back Sunday!!
Have a great weekend!!

Woof Woof

We had a great weekend and are planning to have a great week ahead. We went to the mall Friday night and had our family dinner at Chick-Fil-A at the food court. Pretty fancy!!! While we were at the mall, we exchanged some of the kids clothes, Joel got a new pair of tennis shoes and I got a new digital camera. My camera has been giving me fits for the last couple of weeks. I had had my camera for a good 4 years, so I was due for another one. I am still trying to get everything figured out though.

Saturday we had our family pictures taken and then we went to Greg and Laura's for dinner. They cooked brauts for us. Oh my goodness...the brauts were so good. They come from a little town not far from where we live and I am now wanting to buy some. Luckily they have a website and they will ship them right to your house!!! They also made homemade ice cream...yummy!!! I am going to have to get an ice cream maker!!! Garrett enjoyed the ice cream with me!!! Thanks guys for having us over!!!!

We went to church Sunday and then we went to Sheep and Wool Days. It was a cute little outing at one of our most beautiful parks. The big kids really enjoyed all of the old time stuff used to sheer sheep. The only unfortunate part of Sunday's is Sunday night...knowing that we have to go back to work Monday morning.

You might be wondering where the name of this post came from... Since Garrett started crawling, he is all over the house. We are constantly trying to figure out where he is, making sure he hasn't drowned in the dog water, isn't crawling into Isabel's travel bed, isn't stealing Isabel's paci, isn't pulling at electrical cords, isn't trying to get in the dog food, isn't getting into something that could hurt him...and the list goes on. Tonight Garrett was crawling around and Joel was getting him to laugh (doing the things they always do) and I told Joel that Garrett looked like he was drooling more than usual. The more I watched him, the more he was drooling. Finally Joel picked him up and was trying to see what was in his mouth...he turned to me and smiled really big and caught a glimpse of a piece of dog food!!!!! Luckily he hadn't begun chewing it, just sucking on it!!! It doesn't matter what is on the floor, he is all over it!!! My folks carpet has a design on it and he is always trying to pick at it and get the flecks picked up!!!

Joel just got back from taking Garrett for a walk and I asked Garrett why he was foaming at the mouth, Joel's response "it is the dog food". I guess he is now going to foam at the mouth like a dog when he gets hot!!!

That's all for now!!!! Have a great week!!!

Great Day

Another great Friday!!!! I love getting to work and seeing that our Federal Stimulus payment is here!!!

We are going to have a full weekend...

We usually go out to dinner on Friday's (Joel and I have started a little tradition for our little family of 4). I would like to go to the mall tomorrow. I have a TON of stuff to take back. I went through Isabel's closet and removed everything that isn't going to fit her during the right season. I have a feeling I have about $150 worth of stuff to take back. You know what that means...I can buy more stuff!!!! Saturday evening we are having family pictures taken. They are supposed to be outside, but I am not sure how that will be if the rain keeps up. After our pictures, we are going to Greg & Laura's house for a BBQ and fun. We enjoy spending time with Greg & Laura, Joel and Greg are going to practice on Greg's new chipping net...Laura and I will enjoy a few laughs watching!!!! We will go to church Sunday morning and then (if the rain hold off) we are going to have a family picnic in the park and then go to a sheep thing. I don't remember what it is called, but the kids will be able to see sheep, watch them have their fluff sheered off, and much more!! Should be fun!!!

I hope you have a fun weekend planned!!!
